Divine House, Divine Guidance

Neville's Inner Vision

Notice that in this psalm the house you seek to erect and the city you would guard are not mere stone, but states of consciousness. When you acknowledge the I AM as the builder and the keeper, all toil dissolves into a natural rhythm of being; you are carried by divine momentum rather than driven by fear. To labour in vain is to suppose you must sustain, protect, or provide by personal effort; to permit the I AM to build is to align with Providence and allow your surroundings, your family, and your days to unfold from within. The watchman who watches in vain is the ego's vigilance - an anxious sense that lack governs life. Rest in the Lord, and you enter a sleep that the world calls idle; in truth it is the beloved sleep of trust, the feeling that your needs are already supplied. Children and the fruit of the womb are not separate rewards but the heritage of a consciousness that recognizes life as the Lord's gift and your imagination as its instrument. Your future is not earned by early rising and late suppers but claimed by the inner conviction that the divine Presence governs all.
